About Colorado Pool
Colorado Pool is a warm spring tucked within Arizona’s rugged landscape, offering an authentic and tranquil experience. Its soothing 86°F waters invite you to unwind surrounded by natural rock formations and desert vistas that evoke a deep connection with the environment.
Getting There
Reaching Colorado Pool involves a moderate hike along dusty trails, where parking is limited to nearby trailheads. Prepare for a rustic journey without developed paths or signage, making navigation part of the adventure when exploring hot springs in Arizona.
What to Expect
The spring's warm, mineral-rich water forms a calm swimming hole, perfect for a quiet soak. Primitive conditions mean you’ll find no built-in facilities, and the atmosphere stays serene due to its relatively remote location. Expect minimal crowds, especially during weekdays.
Tips for Visitors
Visit during cooler months for the most comfortable soak, and bring plenty of water and sun protection for the hike. No fees are required, but practice Leave No Trace principles to preserve this natural swimming hole’s pristine condition. Durable footwear and a map or GPS help ensure a safe journey.
